Using FSFS with card to get FTV channels ....Angry at Channel 5 move from FTV to HD subscription only. Sent complaint to C5, but just got holding reply.
I can't justify full SKY HD subscription just to get a few SD FTA channels in HD. I have no interest in any of the main subscription channels but would be prepared to pay a small sub to get the HD versions of the SD FTA channels. eg ITV2-4 HD, Film 4 HD etc. (yes I already get BBC1,2, ITV, C4 in HD)
Just had an online chat with Sky and have a "today only" offer of £14 pm for "Basic Pack" (normally £22.50 and presumably another £5 for HD?) on 12 month contract incuding installation and an HD+ box.
I was thinking more on the lines of £5 as already have box and dish set up.

I pay £24.50 a month for movies + sports + HD
This was negotiated by asking to cancel, which I do every 12 months. Sky keep throwing deals at me to stay.
I don't think I would ever pay more than £20 a month to Sky for a basic package or £30 a month for a premium package.
Some people are happy to pay Sky £50 a month +, I am just too mean to part with all that cash
How long have you been doing this?
surely they'll twig one day!
Well over 5 years

Even when they have cancelled my subscription, I get leaflets through the post offering half price deals.
They must know what deals I have had in the past, as they have my records in front of them when I phone to cancel.
Yes but I specifically asked if it included ITV2-4HD and Film4 HD and they said it did....for £14 per month. I have the chat transcript, but whether that would do me any good in a punch up i doubt :-(
